Since April 2023, Asia Justice and Rights (AJAR), in partnership with the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience (ICSC) and five regional organizations, led the Rohingya Oral History Archives (ROHA) project, which aimed to document the journeys and struggles of Rohingya refugees across Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. From more than 100 testimonies, this research captures the resilience and hope of Rohingyas facing severe challenges as stateless refugees in southeast Asia. Although the oral history project is ongoing, this paper presents findings for ASEAN and its member states to urgently address.
